What is our Purpose? What is our Intent?

As with most weeks this year so far my diary has been incredibly busy, last week was no exception. But I have been spending a little more time that usual in contemplative thought especially around the areas of why certain things have happened... I do believe that everything happens for a reason, what we have to do is understand the 'why it happened'. Mostly our lives are so busy that we just don't get the space to take stock and think about these things and they are lost as new things appear which demand our attention.

To understand the relevance of 'why things have happened' we have to be able to put them into perspective and appreciate the lesson... and if there is a lesson, it must be to teach us about something. Maybe our behaviour, thinking or even a project we're working on. The lesson has to be applied to something that we are trying to achieve, or a direction we are headed, otherwise there is no point in the lesson...

But what direction are we headed? We need to first have a purpose or there is no meaning to what we do. What is your purpose, what are you trying to achieve, where are you going? I know that there are times in my life when I have had to think, what am I doing, is this whole thing going in the direction I need it to go? ... then I begin to look at what I love doing, what is it that I really enjoy and how will that effect others around me? ... is this what I want? ... it is blank sheet of paper time... I have done this now three times in my life!

Without purpose we are stunted, it is a sad reflection on society today where we encourage people to believe a dream (somebody else's dream)... go to school, study hard, get a job, fit into the system... pay your taxes... be part of the 'managed society'. There is not much purpose here... at what point in our lives did someone say to us... take a white sheet of paper... if money was no object what would you be doing? What would you throw your heart and soul into, what is it that you would do day in day out, not care about the financial return, because this would not be work... Most of the time we have to sort this out for ourselves, and for many they never get to see this place at all...

But once we have worked it out... This could be the big one! ...What you were born to do... it might be what is right for you at this point in time, it might be a stepping stone, and there are 100 other things that need to be worked through before we get to the real deal, but that doesn't matter... life is a journey! ... Now what if you were paid to do this? Not paid exorbitant sums, but paid well for striving to reach this place, something that you perfect over time, that rewards you for your passion, commitment and dedication to whatever it is which defines you... in other words your purpose!

We are moving into a new era... Big business, Jobs... the things that we have 'accepted' are NOT going to be the norm... they are what we have been led to believe are the norm, by those with power and influence over our thinking. Why should any of us spend 5 days doing something that we do not really enjoy so that we can earn enough money to live at the weekend? Who invented that idea... and why did we follow it?

... we are all here for a purpose... and we need to find what that is, this surely is our biggest responsibility? There is something we were all born to achieve and we are all unique in order that we might carry out that task. Every single one of us is important... and no one person more than any other, we just have different roles to play... the huge disappointment for us is that we never discover our purpose, and we never fulfil our destiny... but an even bigger disappointment is that all those that would have benefited from us achieving our purpose will never see the results of it!

There will never be a better time to discover our purpose than now... start to make the change, start to live your life, or you will live the life others have in store for you! Become a person of purpose... become a person of INTENT!

I'd not even thought about a Liver Cleanse before, nor had I really heard about it either for that matter. But Greg suddenly appeared from Poland on his way back to Peru. He came to stay for a few days at my flat to see his old school friend Steve.

Having got to know Greg he shared that he offered this Liver cleanse professionally in Peru and would I like to experience it for myself. Well, as you know I am always up for new experiences and so when Greg returned from a brief spell in North Wales we started... so that was Thursday 27th September.

The whole thing is delightfully simple and Greg is extremely knowledgeable both about the process itself, and of course how it works. Basically it is a 2 day programme... and by the start of the 3rd day the effects of the cleanse can be felt.

So here is what happened...
I was instructed to fast (nothing but water) from the end of Wednesday night... then at 6pm on Thursday in the evening I took delivery of 5 bottles of liquid... 4 bottles o…

The number 7 comes up a lot in my life...What has happened in your last 7 years?

I think if we all took the time to reflect we would probably surprise ourselves in one way or another. We all lead such busy lives these days. A lot happens but is there a 'rudder' in your life? An intent or purpose or are you just being buffeted from one thing to another?

As Tolkien said in Lord of the Rings... you want to be careful going outside, every path can lead to adventures. Looking back I don't think I was particularly looking for an adventure... but as time passed that is exactly what happened. Adventures do change us, being out of our comfort zone is no easy place to be, but it is where we grow. Some brief highlights of my own journey follow. They represent some pretty key shifts in my consciousness over the 7 years...

I first answered the call back in 2011. We had witnessed the financial crash in 2007, the world would never be the same again. There was huge hope though. The Internet…

I've heard myself say it countless times and I hear it said every day too. That's what 'they' want... that's what 'they' are trying to do... 'they' are conditioning and brainwashing us...

Who are these people, 'they'? it's an interesting question. If you take the view that a few unbelievably wealthy people are controlling huge sectors of our world and are influential in making global events happen such as wars, terrorism, regime change and a whole lot more... then 'they' could be narrowed down to a 60 or 70 people. Their combined wealth being estimated at approaching 50% of the global wealth... and all this wealth in the hands of a very small 'coach load' of people.

Although the disparity between those with such incredible wealth and the vast numbers of people on this planet with hardly anything at all is not acceptable, we live in a society that actually condones it.
